The
real power behind the New World order lies with the
Bilderberg group. A consortium of
political, media industry and financial elite from around the world, the
Bilderberg group meets annually to make decisions that affect us all. This is not a conspiracy theory. It is a fact that this group exists, and it
is also a fact that they are having their annual conference in Chantilly, Va., right now, May 31-June
3, 2012.

The
true origins of the group go back further than most people realize. James P. Tucker, author of The Bilderberg Diary and pre-eminent expert on the group, has dedicated more than 25 years
of his life to researching and exposing the group. According to Tucker:

“The roots of Bilderberg
go back centuries, when international moneychangers would secretly manipulate
the economy to enrich themselves and enslave ordinary people.

The
Rothschilds of Britain and Europe have met secretly with other financiers for centuries, as did the
Rockefellers of America.

In the
beginning, the Rothschilds were "Red Shields" because of the ornament
on their door and the Rockefellers of Germany were "Rye Fields" because of their crops.

One of the most significant pre-Bilderberg meetings
took place in Jekyll Island, Georgia in 1908, when Nelson Aldrich (whose family
later married into the Rockefeller family) Henry Davidson, of J.P. Morgan and
Co.; Frank Vanderlip, of the National City Bank; Paul Warburg, of Kuhn Loeb and
Co., and A. Piatt Andrew, assistant secretary of the treasury got together and
hatched idea of pressuring Congress into creating the Federal Reserve.

By1954,
the global elite decided a regular annual meeting was necessary. The first of these meetings was held at the
Bilderberg Hotel in the Netherlands. The stated goal at the
time was to promote better cultural understanding between the United States and Western Europe.

The
annual conference is said to be the only Bilderberg event held. It is by invitation only and is generally
less than 150 people. Most of the
attendees are wealthy white males. Only
a few women have attended. Some of the
most notable: Hillary Clinton attended in 2008, Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands has been a frequent
attendee since 1998, and Queen Sofia of Spain was present from
2008-2010. Margaret Thatcher attended
once, in 1975, didn’t like it, and was summarily removed from her office as the
Prime Minister of Britain. She later
told a reporter, that it was "a tribute to be denounced by them".

for a more complete accounting of the conference participants in the past and HERE
for the roster of people currently attending the conference in Chantilly, Virginia.

Edited to add: Those whose
names appear on these lists, especially more than once, are ENEMIES of freedom
and FRIENDS of the New World Order. It is
important that they be recognized as “the bad guys”. Their word cannot be trusted. Their
intentions, no matter how noble they appear, are geared towards ushering in the
NWO. Expect to be manipulated and you will be immune to manipulation.

Intense
security surrounds the conferences.
Entire hotels are closed to any guests not on the Bilderberg
roster. There has never been an official
record or transcript of the meetings released to the public, and all attendees
are completely sworn to secrecy. The
mainstream media, as with all things juicy, controversial, and actually
meaningful, has completely
blacked out coverage of the events.

When
the CEOs and owners of the major media outlets are invited to the party, of
course, it makes it much easier to squash any story that tries to sneak out
into the public eye. David Rockefeller
thanked the press for their circumspection after the 1991 conference in Baden-Baden, Germany. “We are grateful to the Washington Post, the New York Times,
Time Magazine and other great publications whose directors have attended our
meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost forty years. It
would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had
been subjected to the lights of publicity during those years. But, the world is
now more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world government."You
really can’t announce your intentions for a New World Order much more blatantly
than that.

Doesn’t
all this secrecy make you wonder what the wealthiest, most powerful 150 or so
comrades are discussing in those conferences?
These people have the power and money to make decisions that affect
every person on the planet. This cartel
of the “elite” is full of public eugenicists and depopulation proponents, like Bill
Gates, David Rockefeller and Henry Kissinger. They are “king-makers,
hand-choosing presidents and prime ministers, in order to fulfill their secret
plans. In 2008, Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama attended the conference. Days later, Clinton dropped out of the race
for the presidency, Obama was elected, and Clinton subsequently became his
Secretary of State.

George H.W. Bush attended
in 1985. He became president in 1988. Bill Clinton attended in 1991. He became
president a year later. Tony Blair attended in 1993. He became prime minister
of England in 1997. Romano Prodi
attended in 1999. Later that year he became president of the European Union
Commission. In 2004, Sen. John Edwards spoke to the group. He was later
anointed the Democratic vice presidential nominee by presidential candidate
John Kerry.

Two
“spin-off” groups with close ties to the Bilderbergers are the Trilateral
Commission, a “discussion group” founded by David Rockefeller, and the Council on
Foreign Relations, a foreign policy think tank and publishing company, geared
to end national sovereignty. Nearly every US president has been a
member of the CFR, as has nearly every Secretary of State.

***********

Even
more important than “who” the members are is what the goals of the
Bilderbergers are. According to an
article by Steven
Lendman:

The Group's grand design is for
"a One World Government (World Company) with a single, global marketplace,
policed by one world army, and financially regulated by one 'World (Central)
Bank' using one global currency." Their "wish list" includes:

-- "one international identify (observing) one set of universal
values;"
-- centralized control of world populations by "mind control;" in
other words, controlling world public opinion;
-- a New World Order with no middle class, only "rulers and servants
(serfs)," and, of course, no democracy;
-- "a zero-growth society" without prosperity or progress, only
greater wealth and power for the rulers;
-- manufactured crises and perpetual wars;
-- absolute control of education to program the public mind and train those
chosen for various roles;
-- "centralized control of all foreign and domestic policies;" one
size fits all globally;
-- using the UN as a de facto world government imposing a UN tax on "world
citizens;"
-- expanding NAFTA and WTO globally;
-- making NATO a world military;
-- imposing a universal legal system
-- a global "welfare state where obedient slaves will be rewarded and
non-conformists targeted for extermination."

So,
basically, 150 people want to take over the world. They want to reduce the population by killing
a huge percentage of us, and exercise iron control over the remaining “servant
class.” (Hint: that’s you and me, assuming we survive the killing-off phase.)
They intend to have one huge military to enforce their will, one huge treasury
to handle all of their riches and one huge government to tax the peasants, feed
the peasants and train the peasants.

Shamelessly,
David Rockefeller, (again) a prominent Bilderberger and Illuminati family
member, wrote about the Bilderberg Group in his memoirs.

“Some even believe we are part of a secret cabal
working against the best interests of the United States, characterizing my
family and me as ‘internationalists’ and of conspiring with others around the
world to build a more integrated global political and economic structure – one
world, if you will. If that’s the charge, I stand guilty, and I am proud of it.”

The
Bilderberg Group is said to have been responsible for the creation of the
Euro. They promoted the European Union
and are now working on their goal of
North American Union between Mexico, the US, and Canada. The Security
and Prosperity Partnership (SPP) between the US and Canada was contrived at a 2005
Bilderberg meeting. Lenden called the agreement “another step toward global
integration… (that) won't stop until the entire world is unified under the
auspices and the political umbrella of a One World Company, a nightmarish
borderless world run by the world's most powerful clique.” (The SPP has now
morphed into the North American Perimeter Security Agreement.)

Whatever
the plans are for this year’s shindig, you can bet that Bilderbergers won’t be
trying to figure out ways to help their fellow man. When the working class suffers, the elite
class prospers. When regular people are
economically devastated, they are easier to control. When huge segments of the population die or
are sterilized, there are more resources available to the elite. Conjectures as to the 2012 agenda include a
planned pandemic, the presidential election, the Greek collapse and its effect
on the Euro, and the world economic crisis.
If those subjects aren’t enough to keep you up at night, I’ll leave you
with yet another quote from Rockefeller.

"We are on the verge
of a global transformation. All we need is the right major crisis and the
nations will accept the New World Order."

The
United Nations is a tool for the New
World Order takeover. Agencies and
committees are being created faster than ever before in an effort to bring the
entire world under the control of just an elite few.

The thing that is so insidious about the UN
is that they cloak their motives in an air of benevolence. They garner
the whole-hearted support of the unaware by their word choices, their
propaganda, and their warm politically correct facade. The people of the world
are being willingly, happily led off a cliff, while being lulled by the
UN Scheherazade.

One
would think that a freedom-loving country like the United States of America would strenuously object
to being controlled by foreign interests, but one cannot underestimate the
power of propaganda, the false green movement and Barack Obama. Obama, our very own NWO poster child and
lackey, is putting the United States into the hands of the UN
and out of the hands of Americans.

Control
is being handed over to the UN on every level, from every country. We are
watching the takeover of the world, live and in Technicolor.

Military
Control: Months ago, Obama’s henchman Secretary of
Defense, Leon
Panetta, stated that the UN’s approval
would be sought regarding declarations of war, as opposed to the
approval of Congress. This puts the
well-trained US military in the hands of
the demagogues of the UN “peacekeepers”.

Environmental
Control: This June, the UN has announced intentions to
create a global
environmental agency, rife with crippling economic sanctions against any
country that does not toe the Agenda 21
line. Countries will be “assessed” and
mandatory financial contributions will be required, contributions that will go
into a global coffer. Cloaked in a
false green benevolence, the agency will attempt to police every country in
the world and reallocate its resources for the “global good”.

Population
Control: According to an article on Infowars,
the UN, in conjunction with the World Bank, is forcing countries to implement
population control guidelines in order to be able to receive World Bank
assistance. Without access to World Bank
lending, it is virtually impossible for the countries to compete in an
international market

Internet
Control:Obama
and the Congress have already stated their intentions to allow the UN to
police the world’s internet. To get
people behind the idea, they are referring to internet access as a basic human right;
however, once the controls are in place, we can expect to be inundated with a
barrage of regulations. Already in the
works is the International
Code of Conduct for Internet Security, a mandate that states broadly (in
typical open-to-interpretation style) that the intended purpose is “principles
of maintaining information and network security which cover the political,
military, economic, social, cultural, technical and other aspects.”

Financial Control: Never doubt that the world’s economic issues
are not by design. A starving, desperate
populace is a controllable populace. For
years, pundits have been scoffed at for stating that the current economic
depression was by UN design. However, as
country after country collapses, businesses are carbon-taxed out of existence
only to have them spring back up with different, global ownership, and
currencies fail, we have to look at the agenda causing this to happen. The long-term goal is one leadership, which
will swoop in and bail out these countries, feeding the hungry, housing them in
Agenda-21 approved locations and using them to pillage the natural resources of
that country to benefit the elite. The
goal, as decided in 2009 by the Bilderberg group, a global elite “think tank”,
is a global treasury to manage the world’s economy.

Religious Control: The UN purportedly supports religious
freedom, but as usual, is bullying those who do not agree with their version of
morality by holding economic sanctions over that country’s head. The UN threatened to withdraw aid from
countries that did not allow abortion for religious reasons. Furthermore, religious symbols, particularly
Christian symbols, have drawn UN fire for being “intolerant”. While the UN supports global
blasphemy laws that protect Islam from criticism, they support efforts to
have crosses
removed from the exterior of historic buildings in Italy
because the sight of the crosses could “incite violence.” The UK
has jumped on the anti-cross bandwagon recently, as the courts have upheld a ban on the right to
wear a cross or crucifix to work. The assault on Christianity continues with the Union of European Football Association banning the cross at all venues and events.

Health Control: Through Codex
Alimentarius, the United Nations is attempting to control the health of the
world. By forcing GMO foods, removing
our options for taking vitamins and using natural remedies, and requiring “food
modernization”, the UN is removing the right for basic health freedom. The only ones to benefit from this
modernization are Big Pharma and Big Agri, as the population gets weaker and
sicker from the non-nutritious irradiated science projects they are forced to
consume.

We are rapidly devolving into a world devoid
of national sovereignty. Obama, the first “UN President of the United
States”
is leading us right into global enslavement, into a world where we have no
elected officials for representation, where we have no right to protest, and
where we have lost our God-given freedoms.
Every day, the world is slipping more deeply into the hands of the
United Nations and the New World Order, leaving no aspect of our lives untouched.

“Drake” is the name used by an insider to the
plan to arrest many thousands of bad guys in the United States who are responsible for numerous crimes
against the general public. This man “Drake” was asked by the Pentagon to
inform people about what to expect when these mass arrests are broadcast.

Drake was given a large stack of papers detailing a plan for all
this back in 1979. He said he did not read all of it, but he did read some of
it, and this is the basis for the plan of arresting all the high-level crooks.
Much work has been done through the years to get this done in a lawful and
peaceful manner, with research that Drake did on the origins of law going back
many thousands of years.

The bottom line is, the good guys have paperwork that gives the
military civilian authority to contact Federal Marshals, who in turn contact
local law enforcement, who actually make the arrests. The important thing to
know is that this is NOT about military action, or a military coup, or martial
law. There may be a stand of troops to back up the law enforcement actions, and
the Federal Marshals will be with them. The military will be there only to give
assistance as needed.

David Wilcock and Drake will be notified of arrests a day or so
ahead, so it can be put on the Internet and go viral. David Wilcock says there
are “an astonishing number of deeply-imbedded moles, who are so much closer to
these people {arrestees} than anybody thought they could get.”

This
is a synopsis of the “Drake
Interview” that is a huge topic of conversation on Patriot websites and
forums. Basically, it sounds like we all
have nothing to worry about; the guys in white hats are about to ride in and
take care of everything. Apparently, we
can all relax and go back to American Idol now.

Drake
refers frequently to the website Freedom
Reigns. The site treats Drake as a
fountain of information, has “Drake FAQs” page
that gets right down to the nitty gritty of how he takes his coffee and what he
thinks of the Pope, and has a page of “Alerts” to keep America
informed of the actions that are going to be taken against the Elite any day
now.

Personally,
I’m not switching on Dancing with the Stars just yet.

I
just don’t believe this.

First
of all, if these plans were truly in the works, why on earth would the Pentagon
tap this anonymous fellow, “Drake”, to spread the word via an internet
interview with David Wilcock? Would that
really be the media of choice for the Department of Defense, who could simply
take over the networks with the flip of a switch?

Secondly,
why would this advance warning be given?
The Elite, with their unlimited funds, would be able to hop on their
private jets and vanish if there was any basis to these rumors. If such an action were being taken, wouldn’t
it be above top secret until the second it happened?

Finally,
if this has been in the works since 1979, why did it take over 30 years for the
paperwork and arrest warrants to be put together? Why were the banksters and politicos allowed
to run America into the ground for all
that time if their guilt was proven?

This
is nothing but a psyops operation, something defined by the US Department of
Defense as "the planned use ofpropagandaand otherpsychologicalactions having the primary purpose of
influencing the opinions, emotions, attitudes, and behavior of hostile foreign
groups in such a way as to support the achievement of national
objectives."

This
is a method to assuage the Patriots, many of whom are chomping at the bit to
deal with those who have nearly destroyed our country. The PTB do not want a revolution –
revolutions are messy, chaotic and bloody affairs, and they are too
narcissistically proud of their precious skins to risk a revolt if it can be
prevented at all. If enough Patriot
activists are sitting by, waiting for these mass arrests, this simply gives the
Elite a little more time to put their plans into effect.

On
the Alerts page of Freedom Reigns, instructions are given. Read these excerpts with a cynical eye.

…..Media may say its
martiallaw and try to spreadpanic, but the actions arelawful
and benefithumanity….

….International travel willbe stopped for 3 days….

….Remain calm. Support the troops and law officers that are arresting
thousands of criminals guilty of heinous crimes against us all….….Research stories on the
internet to assure yourself that the arresters are good and the arrestees are
bad….

This
is an attempt to program us not to resist as martial law is instated. This is an effort to convince Patriots to go
along with the enemy like sheep to the slaughter. Believe this and you will end up in a FEMA
camp, convinced it’s for your own safety whilst the “bad guys” are being
rounded up.

Joel Skousen,
prominent political scientist and well-respected commentator in the Patriot
movement, puts it bluntly on Liberty Round Table. “All of this is so patently ridiculous that
I’m embarrassed for the movement and those good people who are taken in by it.
But, perhaps that’s part of the purpose—to drive thinking people away and
discredit the ones who understand how the true conspiracy operates.”

Hear more from Skousen on this Infowars interview with Alex Jones.

As
we get closer to the vital breaking point in the Resistance, we will be flooded
with more and more disinformation.
Verify the sources of what you hear.
Consider the credibility and the agendas of those sources. Don’t fall victim to a hoax, no matter how
elaborate or widely spread. If it sounds
like liberty is going to return via the proper channels, while we stand
patiently by on the sidelines, you can be assured that it is NOT TRUE.

Oh
– what am I doing? I’m just practicing
counting votes for the 2012 presidential election, possibly the most vital
election in American history.

Why
am I doing it in Spanish? Because, silly
reader, American votes are tallied in Spain. Duh.

Get
ready for more election fraud. Over 900
jurisdictions are relying on Scytl,
according to its own website, “the worldwide leader in electronic voting and
electoral modernization”. Scytl is based
in Barcelona, Spain and the board of directors
is made up of….you guessed it, investment bankers. As if the globalist bankers haven’t done
enough damage to the US, they will now be in
charge of the majority of the election.

Scytl
voting is strictly internet based. There
is absolutely NO paper trail. This
leaves no room for transparency in the vote-counting process and it also leaves
the election results vulnerable to hackers. Bev Harris of Black
Box Voting confirms, “With SCYTL internet voting, there will be no ballots.
No physical evidence. No chain of custody. No way for the public to
authenticate who actually cast the votes, chain of custody, or the count.”

The software can definitely be hacked as was
proven in 2010. A team of University
of Michigan
students hacked into the system within 36 hours. They targeted voting in Washington,
DC,
appropriately, and with showy, “Anonymous-style” flair, they made
a joke of the entire system. Fox
News reported, “They changed votes, "elected" a Star Wars robot
chairman of the City Council,
and installed the school’s fight song, “Hail to the Victors,” which would play
15 seconds after someone voted.”

Our findings identified
vulnerabilities that, in the worst case, could result in (i) voters being
unable to cast votes, (ii) an election result that does not accurately reflect
the will of the voters, or (iii) disclosure of confidential information, such as
the votes cast by a voter. The extent to which these vulnerabilities could
actually be exploited in the ODBP is beyond the scope of this report given our
lack of system context. Secure handling and audit of the Voter Choice Records
may defend against some or all of these vulnerabilities, but these procedures
were not available for review.We identify three findings
of particular significance:

The use of supervised polling stations provides
significantly better protection against voter coercion or vote-

selling than is
present in some other absentee voting systems, such as voting by mail.

Two copies of each vote are stored: one electronically,
and another on paper as a Voter Choice Record. This provides redundancy
that is not present in existing vote-by-mail systems. If the electronic
votes are well-protected, then they can enable audit of the paper records
in ways that are not currently possible.

After casting their ballot, each voter is given a receipt
that is intended to give voters confidence that their votes were “Counted
as Cast”. These receipts do not achieve their stated goal of allowing
voters to “independently verify that their ballots have been correctly
accounted for.” These receipts might indicate that a vote was received and
decrypted by the county (a property not typically provided by current
postal voting systems), but they do not provide assurance that the voter’s
vote was correctly recorded.

Apparently these red flags were not enough to concern the US
de facto government (or perhaps they were just added benefits?). Scytl is the system used for absentee voting
for all members of our military stationed overseas.

Michael
Savage, a conservative talk show host, has blatantly stated his belief that
this is a global maneuver to keep Obama in office. “It is very likely that this
is the final step in Barack Obama’s corruption of the voting process. It
has the promise of enabling him and his cohorts to control the outcomes of
federal elections with no accountability. On top of that it’s one more
step toward a global government.”

Indeed, the CEO of Scytl, Pere Valles, quite
interestingly, spent several years working in…..Chicago
as CEO of KPMG. In fact, Valles, who
is not an American citizen, is said to have donated the maximum allowable
amount to Obama’s presidential campaign. Of course, like nearly everything else
in Obamaland, the donor list has been scrubbed and sanitized for public
consumption. (5340
donors’ names were deleted from his contribution list). It’s interesting to note that although Valles
does not appear on the list of donors; over 120
other donors were employed by Valles at KPMG.

The primary investors in Scytl are Balderton
Capital (with ties to JP Morgan), Nauta Capital, and Spinnaker SCR. Balderton, in particular, through parent
company Benchmark Capital, also donated heavily to the Obama campaign. You can find more information here
about the financial connections between Obama, the globalist bankers and Scytl.

So to summarize:

·900
jurisdictions within the US
will have their votes counted remotely in Spain.

Friday, 18 May 2012

The
Obama administration must be saying to themselves, “Well, this is certainly
inconvenient.”

The
question is, what are they going to do to distract the public from this
revelation? What false flag nightmare will they create to rally the public
behind the de facto imposter who has illegally held the highest office in the United States since 2009? Who is going
to be assassinated in this new cover-up?

The
controversy surrounding Obama’s eligibility to be the President of the United States just got a whole lot
bigger with Breitbart.com’s
release of a photo of his bio in a booklet put out in 1991. The biography states:

“Barack
Obama, the first African-American president of the Harvard Law Review, was born
in Kenya and raised in Indonesia and Hawaii. The son of an
American anthropologist and a Kenyan finance minister, he attended ColumbiaUniversity and worked as a financial
journalist and editor for Business International Corporation.”

The
literary agency that published the booklet in question has recanted, calling it
a “nothing more than a fact-checking error.”
Do you really think that “mistake” would have been allowed to stand for
this long? Do you think that a narcissist like Barack Obama didn’t glory in
reading his own little bio in that publication? This is not a mistake. The
mistake is believing anything shared in the monumental cover-up that is about to
ensue.

Miriam
Goderich, the literary agent who claimed responsibility for the mistake, might
want to take an extended vacation, have some extensive plastic surgery and
change her name unless she wants to end up like Breitbart’s
coroner, Dr. Michael Cormier, the last person who publicly covered up an
alleged Obama administration crime.

The
public can expect their attention to be misdirected by a strategically timed
disaster or false
flag terrorist event. Since it’s an
election year, we are due for a distraction of epic proportions.

Last
month, an astute friend commented, “The eyes of the world are going to be on Chicago in May.” At that point we were discussing the
possibility of a false flag event to speed up the martial law takeover that
seems to be in the works. Now such an
event seems even more likely - the NATO Summit would be a prime setting for the
ultimate distraction. Residents of
certain parts of Chicago had already been urged to
be elsewhere during the summit. The Red Cross in nearby Wisconsin was asked to put shelters
on stand-by because the summit “may
create unrest or another national security incident. “ A Wisconsin Red Cross spokesperson stated
that the evacuation plan was not theirs alone.
““Our direction has come from the City of Chicago
and the Secret Service.”

Clearly something was already in the
works. We can expect that “something” to
be cranked up to an event so shocking no one will give a second thought to the illicit
origins of Barry Barack Hussein Soetero Obama.

Question everything from here on out. When you read something refuting the report
on Obama’s heritage, ask yourself these pertinent questions about the source:

·How
much did he/she get paid to make this statement?

·What
could be in this person’s own background that could make him/her vulnerable to
blackmail?

·Is
this person also owned by AIPAC?

·Does
this person have an agenda that is benefited by Obama remaining in office for
another four years?

·What
is the continued life expectancy for this person after his/her statement has
been milked for all it’s value?

Mac Slavo, editor of SHTFplan
believes that answers are in order. “The American people have been subjected to
a massive expansion of the police and welfare state under his reign. At the
very least we should know with 100% certainty whether the man signing the
legislation and Executive Orders is, in fact, an American by birth.”

Earnestly endeavor to recognize the truth,
and to share that truth. Demand that
your members of Congress investigate the legitimacy of the President, and upon
their findings, consider void every illegally signed executive order and
legislation that has been put into place during Obama’s years in office. Flood
the media outlets and politician’s websites with emails insisting upon the
truth.

The United
States
de facto government, headed by an imposter and an illegal president, is on the
verge of declaring martial law and finally ridding itself of that pesky
Constitution that we hold so dear. Don’t
allow yourself to be distracted by spectacular events or deluded by
sleight-of-hand. It’s time to resist
through truth, transparency and a return to integrity.

"The
Matrix is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the
truth."

Matrix, 1999 ~

With
the economy in the toilet and the outlook even further down into the sewer system,
yard sales are popping up more than ever. Not only can the seller make a few bucks, the buyers
can hit the mother lode and acquire needed items at a tiny percentage of the price. It’s win-win, right?

Not
to the federal government of Canada. If money is changing hands outside the system,
the government is certain to want to put a stop to it. What better way to halt trade that doesn’t
benefit them than to regulate it?

In
a news
release dated May 15, 2012, Health Canada (the federal department
responsible for public health) cautions against buying or selling goods at a
garage sales. In fact, the regulations affect
not only the sale of second-hand goods, but the donation of them.

The
legal basis of this is a legislation passed last June. “OnJune 20, 2011, theCanadaConsumer Product Safety Act(CCPSA)
came into force. Its purpose is to protect the public by addressing and
preventing dangers to human health or safety that are posed by consumer
products inCanada. There is no distinction under the CCPSA and its
regulations between new and used products. Any person who sells, distributes,
or gives away consumer products that do not comply with the Act or its current
regulations is breaking the law inCanada.”

This
makes it illegal to pass on hand-me-downs, sell items on Craigslist, hold yard
sales or garage sales, or donate these items to others in need. As with all governmental documents, the
wording is so vague that it is completely open to interpretation. The published rhetoric focuses on items designed
for infants and children but cautions, “Buyers and sellers are urged to
exercise caution regarding all consumer products.”

One
notable example of a “hazardous product” is loose
fitting cotton sleepwear. “Cotton or
cotton-blends may only be used for tight-fitting styles such as sleepers or
polo pajamas.”

Other
odd caveats:

·Plush animals that have detachable eyes or noses

·Costume jewelry (could contain lead or cadmium)

·Baby gates without instructions and original
packaging

·Cosmetics unless they comply with the Food and
Drugs Act

·MP3 players that could pose the risk of electric
shock

·Window blinds or curtains

For
eagle-eyed yard-sale attendees or hand-me-down beneficiaries, an easy-to-use tattle-tale
form is available on the Health Canada website. With unparalleled convenience, the online
form is automatically submitted to instigate an investigation of the questionable
item.

This
is another example of a government condescending to “care for” its citizens as
though they are unable to exercise common sense when buying or selling
goods. The wildly intrusive law is just
another method of control over the way people make money and the way people
spend it.

Other
recent incidents of ridiculous regulations:

Three
little girls in Georgia were busted by the police chief for having a
lemonade stand in their front yard. According
to the Chief of Police, health was of great concern. “"We were not aware of how the lemonade
